The invention of vaccination has been considered one of the best healthcare inventions of all time, however others argue that it may be one of the worst. Vaccine production has been put in place in an attempt to slow down or completely eradicate some diseases. Those against the use of vaccines believe they can be harmful. In some situations this may be true due to circumstances such as allergic reactions that occur. Overall, children, especially when they are young, need immunity against at least common diseases. If the use of vaccines had not been adopted, some of the world's once most widespread and harmful diseases would still exist today. Vaccinations on newborns are of the utmost importance because, once contracted, the disease can be much more serious than it would be in the past. even that of an older child. While it is true that children receive vaccinations through their mothers, these begin to wear off over time. This can happen as early as a month after conception (Hoecker, Mayo Clinic). If children are not vaccinated they are more likely to contract if not spread the disease they have come into contact with. Living in the United States, most doctors recommend about eleven vaccinations (chickenpox, diphtheria, human papillomavirus (female), measles, meningitis caused by the bacterium Haemophilus influenzae type b, mumps, polio, rubella, tetanus, whooping cough, and hepatitis. ( types A and B). Some vaccinations provide lifelong immunization while others require so-called “booster” doses periodically ensure that the previous dose is effective in place (“Vaccination”)....... half of the document......there is a one in a million chance that harm will be done of whether every child should be forced to be vaccinated is that the government is denying its citizens individual rights. If vaccines were not important and a key factor in the well-being of our country, public schools would not want all students in the their district were vaccinated waivers to evade the process, but it would not be so strongly suggested without reason. The argument that “individual rights are no longer taken into account” is irrelevant when taking into account the people as a whole. It is much more logical to keep an entire nation healthy than to keep a few people happy. However, if vaccination never becomes compulsory, schools and/or workplaces should have the option to choose whether or not to welcome an unvaccinated individual into their environment..
